After upgrade to C8 - Z-Wave devices are intermittently failing

See here for more info on POE splitter issues: [2.3.5.113] C8 Z-Wave dropout at random times of the day

@brad5 and I are a couple of the people cursed from POE splitters with the C8. C7 was rock solid, and even using the same POE splitter with the C8 (MicroUSB to USBC adapter), I have issues. I have tried 3 different POE splitters, as well as source power from a Unifi POE switch and a 30W POE injector and nothing seems to work like the AC brick does. It's very weird, if I use the provided power brick, everything is perfectly fine. If I switch to POE power, things fail. Though, others have been using POE with C8 and their setups have been totally fine. I believe @brad5 is still seeing issues, even with the provided power brick, so I don't believe everything is POE related.
